TODAY'S SHOW: WEDNESDAY, MAY 14TH 2008

By Vanessa Silverton-Peel

On today's show Rachel is going to be talking to New York Times' political writer John Harwood about his new book, Pennsylvania Avenue: Profiles in Backroom Power.

Also, we have reason to believe that John Edwards is going to be endorsing Barack Obama at approximately 6:30 pm ET.  We will carry that live.  And then Rachel will talk to her politcal guru David Bender about they why and the when on this endorsement.

Conventional Wisdom

Ewedel - you are so correct. Rachel tries to say she is neutral but she is always showing her hand in small ways. She is right Clinton is not leaving this race.

But that is all - Hillary is hoping to win Oregon, Kentucky, Montana, South Dakota in addition to Puerto Rico. So now these are the most important "swing" states - before it was only big states that mattered - now a small state counts - why because Hilliary won. So Hillary believes the superdelegates are as uninformed as the LIV in WV and will buy her argument. They might if she does indeed win all the remaining states. I can only hope that folks in those states are wiser and that they support Obama as they did in North Carolina and even Indiana.

Rachel you sound as strident as Clinton when you keep crowing about conventional wisdom. It is unfortunate that the MSM has nothing substantive to say so that they spend their time trying to outdo each other speculating about what Hillary or anyone else is thinking. You participate in that as well. As ewedel says - get over yourself!
